Raceseng Camaro SS & ZL1 Shift Knobs

45LongColt · 07-20-2018, 09:18 AM

Does anyone here have any experience with these? I was thinking about ordering one, but wanted some feed back first on ease of installation, fit & finish, weight, style favorites and so forth. Thanks

Are you sure that they make one to fit the Camaro?

Our shifter doesn't screw on. When I put my 8 ball shift knob in mine, I had to buy a Barton shifter adapter first.

Some previous discussion about Raceseng.
They have had Camaro specific knobs for well over a year
I think their product is top notch. Pricey, I was not to happy about that at first....But I would get one. Lots to choose from.

Thank you. I will do that. Much appreciated

I had one of their Sphereology knobs in my Golf R 6MT (which incidentally also required an adapter, provided). It was a really nice shifter.

Here is a picture of mine, ordered the adapter and was an easy install. Lethal has a YouTube on the switch out. Top notch company to deal with, they custom build them as the orders come in. Very pleased with the quality.

I got one as soon as I heard of them (always wanted a ball shifter and hate the suede one in the 1LE). It comes with an adapter to convert to twist on, very easy descriptive installation. The feel of it is nice and high quality. Might be placebo effect but it does feel like I shift faster, who knows. I got it for aesthetics.

I like mine, also have the tow hook. Wait for black friday at this point though, they do run 20% off sales.

Thanks for the heads up. The one I am looking at is $355 with the shift boot collar. I hope it goes on sale.

I have the Hurst short throw shifter that uses the stock shift knob I added a Raceseng ashiko weighted shift knob and adapter it’s the heaviest one they make the stock SS shit knob is 335g and the Ashiko is 735g it took some time to get the boot to sit right still needs a little work but worth it in the end

Awesome setup DRGNZ… Where’d you get the steering wheel from???

I did end up getting one and the installation was pretty straight forward. I like mine a lot.
